ATjTaOHQL-3 PER CBT. J GIRL IN DETENTION HOME Woman Who Maintains She Is Rus sian Princess Agrees That Child Should Be RestrainedFears of Violence Reiterated. From stories told by Mrs. John Hit ting? and from age-worn correspondence she exhibited but refused to let them peruse, officers of the Woman's Pro tective Bureau of the Department of Public Safety are convinced that the woman Is of royal descent. Mrs. Mitting, In a polyglot explana tion yesterday to both Mrs. Lola O. Baldwin and Mrs. Neil R. Crounse, of the Woman's Protective nivlslon, told them of her marriage to John Mitting. an Australian, and a "nobody" In the eyes of royalty. She told them that too much publicity of her past would revive the Interest the house of Ko valaskl has In seeking her downfall for her morganatic marriage since she was, ' according to her admission, the rightful Princess Kovalaski. Letters dated back to the early '80s were exhibited yesterday addressed to the Duchess Buckingham, the title Mrs. Mitting says is hers, though -jeopardized by her morganatlu marriage. Woman Baa Explanation. Mrs. Mitting had an explanation ready when Mrs. Baldwin brought to her attention. that the Duchess of Buckingham was a title that no long er appeared in the authentic peerage book but she used so many languages in talking that Mrs. Baldwin didn't exactly get the drift of It. As the only reason the authorities are interested In the case Is to determine If Amy, the daughter, found in a barrel at the Trinity Church Sunday morning, was forced to leave home because of the beating she received from her mother, as she explained, they have not sought any further into the woman's history. Mrs. Mitting will visit her daughter today with Mrs. Baldwin. The girl Is at a detention home. Both Mr. and Mrs. Mitting seem agreed that it is best Amy be placed in some detention home. "Duchess Expresses Fears. Mrs. Mitting, with her mixture of Russian. French and English blood, as she explains, is of extremely excitable disposition. She meets questioning with a mixture of fear and arrogance. She apparently Is constantly worried that members of the royal Russian family will kill either herself or daughter. No effort was made to determine if the assertion made by Mrs. Mitting that she had sealed In her skirt foreign securities worth ,60.000 was true, al though Mrs. Mitting reasserted her for mer claim. One of the peculiarities of the finding of Amy by the janitor of the church, H. D. Neely, Is that before he discov ered her his foot was so sore that he could barely place it upon the ground. His surprise on finding the girl In the barrel was so genuine that he put his foot on the ground with great haste. He forgot he was using it until the excitement had subsided. He then dis covered that there was no pain. He has felt no pain since. SCHOOLS SHOW GAINS SPRl.MJ TERM OPENS WITH TENDANCE OP SO,S97. AT.

The pulp and paper mill company Is organized with capitalization of $1,000.- 000. Instead of $750,000. as first report ed. The original plan of the promoters was to capitalize at $600,000, but now the plans have been changed and the plant Will be made larger than was first Intended.
